If you are a gamer or a person that needs a strong machine and you are not sure what is the best computer to buy, consider Dell Vostro. The Dell Vostro 15 5568 is a low priced and visually pleasing upper entry-level business PC, packing some more multimedia power, thanks to its dedicated graphics (Nvidia GeForce 940MX GDDR5), great for those occasional gaming moments at home or during breaks. The Dell Vostro 15 5568 is a well-balanced, powerful and reactive notebook.

The 2017 version of the Microsoft Surface Pro is a stylish convertible featuring a passively cooled Intel Core i5-7300U (15W) instead of the usual Intel core m series, making it one of the most powerful silent laptops in the market! The cameras are very good and support Windows Hello and the touchscreen is bright, with high contrast and excellent color coverage.

The battery life is impressive! It easily beats the older Surface Pro 4 with Intel Core m3 (only 4.5W) and is proof that Microsoft can even beat Apple in power management optimizations.

The only serious drawback of the Surface Pro 2017 is the lack of the modern USB-Type C/Thunderbolt 3 ports, making it incompatible with most generic USB Type-C Docking stations.

The HP EliteBook x360 1030 G2 is HP Inc.'s current flagship for businesses. This PC packs awe-inspiring build quality and a powerful 15W Intel Core i5-7300U inside an extra thin chassis that, unlike the Microsoft Surface Pro 2017, doesn't throttle down its performance under normal use.

Being HP no.1 Business computer it features all the most recent security features, from TPM 2.0 to SureStart to HP's latest invention, the Privacy display!

The battery life is impressive; it can last up to 23 hours! The user can theoretically use this laptop unplugged for an entire long haul flight to the other side of the world, and still have some spare battery life!

The only real drawback is the price. At almost 1600$ it is quite expensive, and you can even go towards the 2000$ price point for the rare 512GB model, but since this computer is probably the best business notebook in the market, it is totally worth every single penny.

The HP Elite x2 1012 G2 is HP Inc.'s current flagship detachable for businesses. This PC packs awe-inspiring build quality and a powerful 15W Intel Core i5-7300U inside an extra thin tablet chassis that, unlike the Microsoft Surface Pro 2017, doesn't throttle down its performance too much under normal use.

Being HP's no.1 business detachable notebook, it features all the most recent security features, from TPM 2.0 to SureStart to HP's latest invention, the Privacy display!

The battery life is good at around 15 hours of runtime, but can't really match its bigger brother's, the HP EliteBook 1030 x360 G2 (23+ hours!).

The only real drawbacks are the high surface temperatures (don't use this pc on your lap!) and its price of almost 1500$, which is quite expensive! You can even go towards the 2000$ price point for the rare 512GB model... but since this computer is probably the best business detachable notebook in the market; the steep price is totally worth every single penny.

The Aspire 3 A315-21 is a simple office laptop that can easily handle everyday tasks.

The SSD enables the system to run quickly. There is no shortage of storage space, given that the SSD is accompanied by a 1 TB 2.5-inch hard drive! The SSD + Hard Drive combo is an extremely rare thing in the Cloudbook world and is usually mostly present in high-end gaming laptops. The keyboard is reasonably good and fulfills all the requirements for home use.

The matte 15.6-inch display will not win any prizes. It is dark, has poor contrast, and it does not provide stable viewing angles, but at least it's responsive.

For 308$, this basic laptop is quite a good choice and, thanks to its AMD A6-9220 APU, has a slightly better performance than Intel's equivalently priced Celeron/Pentium based solutions.

Key characteristics

Other characteristics

Pros:

• Matte display

• Wi-Fi AC wich is extremely rare on this price point
• Fast and reliable SD Card reader

Contras:

• Low contrast display with bad viewing angles
• Mediocre battery life

Key points mentioned in the reviews & our take on them:

• Not surprisingly, this model gets a lot of praise for its matte display, barely warming up, rare SSD+HDD combo, upgradability, Wi-Fi AC wich is extremely rare on this price point, fast and reliable SD Card reader.

• This model got some criticism for its low contrast display with bad viewing angles and mediocre battery life.

The EliteBook x360 1020 G2 is a great example of the merging between sleek consumer designs and feature-heavy business configurations. It's inarguably faster and thinner than older the 1020 G1, but not without some cutbacks that longtime EliteBook owners may lament like the lack of docking station, TrackPoint or ports selection.

The jump from the 4.5W Intel Core M5-5Y75 to the more powerful 15W Intel Core i7-7600U (at this time the most powerful dual core mobile Intel Processor to date) is one if not the main benefit of this new revision.   

The EliteBook x360 1020 G2 has also display features found on no other business notebook of its size! It even includes the option for a bright 120 Hz 700 nit panel. HP SureView (Which dims the screen to other people passing by to keep the user's work safe from unwanted viewers) is the other exclusive feature but, sadly, there are some strange characteristics regarding brightness at certain viewing angles and a slightly grainy glossy display. Nonetheless, users who are accustomed to carrying dongles and adapters can equally exploit the benefits of both laptop and tablet mode and will not be disappointed with this admittedly attractive business machine.

Key characteristics

Other characteristics

• Networking; Intel Wireless-AC 8265 Wi-Fi a/b/g/h/n/ac w/Bluetooth 4,0 + USB Type-C Gigabit Ethernet Adapter

• Ports: 2xThunderbolt 3, HDMI, 3.5 Audio Jack

• Operating system: Windows 10 Pro 64bit

Processor (Tested with Cinebench R15).

• Cinebench R15 Single Core: 161 Points (One of the highest single core scores)

• Cinebench R15 Multi Core:   353 Points (Great score but lower than expected for a core i7-7600U due to thermal limitations)

 
Graphics Benchmarks: (Tested with 3DMark11)

• 3DMark 11:  1842 (Low score, but better than most Intel integrated graphics)

Gaming Benchmarks:

• Bioshock Infinite (Medium Detail @1366x768): 32 fps (Barely Playable with some serious occasional stuttering)
• Rise of the Tomb Raider (Ultra Low Detail @1280x720): 20 fps (Unplayable)

Reviews on other sites

This model got excellent reviews with an overall rating of 89% (Notebookcheck)

Pros:

• Lightweight and portable
• Spectre inspired design looks great
• Strong and durable chassis for its size
• Military Standard Certifications
• Many security features both software and hardware
• Extremely bright display with excellent outdoor visibility
• Good Surface temperatures under load
• Awesome Bang & Olufsen speaker system
• Fast NVMe SSD from Samsung
• CPU Performance mostly consistent with limited throttling only under extreme multi core loads
• SureView display + NFC
• Great keyboard feedback
• Silent for a dual fan system (at least at idle)

Contras:

• SureView causes low display contrast and is thus useless for photo/video editing
• No dedicated mouse keys or TrackPoint
• Wacom Pens are supported but not bundled
• TN (a.k.a. bad) like viewing angles due to SureView technology
• Lack of ports
• Trackpad is too sticky due to its glass material
• Can be too thin doesn't feel as sturdy as the EliteBook 700/800 series
• Screen flickers at brightness under 99%
• Jumps from silent to extremely loud under gaming (Thankfully most of the target users won't notice)
• Screen Backlight Bleeding
• Multi Core speed is good but not that great and can be as slow as the older Intel Core i7-6500U under Cinebench R15
• Electronic and Coil Noise
• No 4K 120hz Option

Conclusion

The above characteristics make this computer a great choice for any serious enterprise professional that is accustomed to bring loads of adapters, which also values design and security.

The sleek and light aluminum chassis will cause envy to many, its luxurious 3K Ultra High resolution screen, its great processing speed thanks to the Skylake 6th gen Core i5 and i7 CPUs and its bright display make the Envy 13 an all-around winner in the Ultrabook category.

Other characteristics

• Networking; Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 Wi-Fi ac w/Bluetooth 4.0 (Wi-Fi connectivity only, supports the latest Wi-Fi ac standard)

• Ports: USB 3.0, MiniDisplayPort, microSD Card, 3,5mm audio

• Operating system: Windows 10 Home 64bit

• Weight; 1kg

(Typical) user groups

The above characteristics make this computer a great choice for:

• Power users who travel very often and need a very lightweight travel companion, but need a good amount of processor and storage performance in a PC that can stay always cool and quiet.
• Multimedia enthusiasts, thanks to its good speakers and its integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 GPU w/QuickSync that can accelerate up to H.265 video playback and even play some games at low details.
• Professional photographers and video editors, thanks to its 13.3" 4K IPS display that offers an impressive contrast ratio of 1400:1 and a color gamut covering almost the entirety of sRGB plus a good amount of the AdobeRGB color spaces.
• Small & Medium Business users who don't need Windows 10 Professional, thanks to its TPM module and FingerPrint Reader.

Reviews on other sites

With an overall rating of 85% (85% on Notebookcheck.net), this computer has an above-average rating.

Pros:

• Awesome 4K display with incredible contrast ratio
• Good performance
• High quality aluminium chassis
• Extremely high quality speakers from Bang & Olufsen

Contras:

• Slight fluctuating CPU performance during heavy gaming load due to the strict power consumption limit, but unfortunately has to be expected since this laptop uses an ULV type (15W CPU+GPU shared) CPU.
• Very limited upgrade options and lack of easy-to-open maintenance hatch. This is a common drawback of this category (Ultrabooks). The M.2 2280 SSD storage can be upgraded with a little technical knowledge though.

Conclusion

The HP Envy 13 Ultrabook is a great choice if you are willing to spend a few more bucks for great style & portability without sacrificing performance, cooling potential and features.

The Asus K501 is a great 15.6" laptop suitable for gamers and multimedia fan alike. Although the Nvidia GeForce GTX 950M is not-apt for ultra hardcore gaming, it can still play the vast majority of games in full HD.

Overall, the price/performance ratio is extremely good and this laptop is worth all the money.

With its thickness of just 10mm, The HP Spectre 13 is a direct competitor of the Apple Macbook (2016).  One big difference, compared to the competition, is that HP managed to install 15W Intel Core i7 CPUs in this ultrathin form factor instead of using less powerful 4.5W Intel Core M series. The display is incredible, thin and with high contrast. To keep the device slim, HP utilizes a new technology called Piston Hinge.

Key characteristics

Other Characteristics:

• Ports: The Spectre 13, like every ultrathin notebook, has a relatively limited but better-than-usual selection of ports: 1xUSB 3.0 type-C port for charging, 2xUSB 3.1 Type-C Ports with Thunderbolt 3 and a 3.5mm audio jack, an USB Type-C to standard USB 3.0 dongle is bundled.
• Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 Home 64bit
• Weight: 1.16kg
• PSU: 45W

(Typical) user groups:

The above characteristics make this computer a great choice for:

• Power users who travel very often and need a very lightweight travel companion but need a good amount of processor and storage performance.
• Multimedia enthusiasts, thanks to its good speakers and its integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 GPU w/QuickSync that can accelerate up to H.265 video playback and even play some games at low details.
• Professional photographers and video editors, thanks to its 13.3" IPS display that offers an impressive contrast ratio of 1600:1 and a color gamut covering almost the entirety of sRGB (96%), plus a good amount of the AdobeRGB (63%) color spaces.

Reviews on other sites

With an overall rating of 85% (85%Notebookcheck.net and 4.7/5 Stars on Amazon), this computer has an above-average rating.

Pros:

• Dual Thunderbolt 3 port
• Keyboard backlighting
• Typing experience,
• Lightweight,
• Innovative and luxurious design
• Awesome display with incredible contrast ratio
• Good performance
• The USB Type-C to USB 3.0 Type A adapter is already bundled

Contras:

• Slight fluctuating CPU performance under heavy load caused by thermal throttling, unfortunately with such a thin design this has to be expected
• Lack of a touchscreen, the probable cause is that by being so lightweight and by not being designed as a 2-in-1 convertible, a simple touch would practically tilt the device. For touch fanatics HP offers its sister model "HP Spectre x2" Convertible as alternative

Conclusion

The HP Spectre 13 Ultrabook is a great choice if you are willing to spend a few more bucks for great style & portability without sacrificing too much performance and features.

You can buy it on Amazon.
